Matching a modified vee Lund 1600 Alaskan 2005 against a deep vee Lund 2010 Pro Guide 2013 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Lund 2010 Pro Guide 2013 measures 20,2 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 4,2 additional feet of deck space compared to the Lund 1600 Alaskan 2005 at 16,0 feet (2005). At 85 lbs and 144 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.

The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 200 hp, the Lund 2010 Pro Guide 2013 has a 125-hp advantage over the Lund 1600 Alaskan 2005's 75-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Lund 1600 Alaskan 2005 carries 19 gallons versus 4 gallons in the Lund 2010 Pro Guide 2013. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Both boats are rated for 6 passengers — a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
